As soon as the patch comes out I will make it my goal to hunt down all those formally invincible Stuarts. That and tea bag all tommy gun whores.

And thank you for the patch release date, I will make sure to have my friend over and join a squad with VOIP so we can kick some Cretan ass!

Oh and thanks to the other forum members for their sympathy and moral support...

Welcome back, comrade!

fly as high as possible you have to fly higher than a bofor can shoot or you are fried chicken. and dont got for maleme airodrome it is protected by 6 bofors and you dont want your paratroopers jump into their crossfire.

So the damn Bofors Hill is still there, huh?
And who is going to refund my Junkers when it gets shotdown?!

The 'small patch' is planned to contain 2 or 3 more african maps, including one which has been in production for just about two years now and one which will heavily involve the Italians.

Another "small patch" pre-Normandy that may finally implement more fully the Italians? Awesome. Beyond awesome.

Just a wild guess... I'd be willing to bet that one map that has been in production forever set in North Africa...is Operation Torch?

kind of
they are much better camouflaged compared to fh42 it will take a few weeks till you know all the positions

best way he had in play testing was:
bf109 strafes the bofors positions to kill the gunners
then stukas dive in and destroy the bofors
then ju52 flies in and drops a shitload of paratroopers
thats the only way to take maleme via paradrop

best way is to first take some other flags and attack malame on foot

[Cadyshack]

What about the drop zone just west of Maleme you oh-so-graciously put on the minimap?

All SLs drop there, and half the team is set to plow in.

[DerangedDingo]

Warm up your F5 keys, boys.

It's gonna be a looong week.

That requires some teamwork.. So, yes, I prefer taking it on foot. Those damn flyboys never listen to any orders.
